In depth

Verdict

Dew Line finished fourth behind Snap Click, Udogo and Manorov over course and distance earlier this month and that trio all run in the first division. She's won since at Listowel but is 9lb higher now and she has to give 7lb to SCENIC STAR. Gavin Cromwell's Down Royal winner may be improving and can confirm running with Ondamoura, though will need a strong gallop to be effective over this trip. Last Garrison wasn't far behind Dew Line here last time and there isn't much between the pair on today's terms while Ballydoyle's Best Kept Secret has started to come down the weights again. But this may be too far for High Focus.
